My International Riding Career: In 1995, I started traveling to England in the summers, visiting family and riding here and there for the next 14 years, mainly at Woodreadon Equestrian Center, in Loughton, Essex. In 2000 I started going with my German husband to Germany every year for a month in the summer or autumn visiting family and friends and riding up to Grand Prix with top Riders like Catherine Haddad, Helena Schultz, Günter Klaus, Flæminghof Reitstall, & others in Vechta, Berlin, Baden-Baden, Magstadt, & South-Western Germany.
